Wheeler signed to Eagles practice squad with three RBs injured ahead.

Wheeler signed to Eagles practice squad as running back depth amid injuries to Saquon Barkley (hamstring), Tank Bigsby (injured reserve), and Will Shipley (foot injury expected to sideline him multiple games); with only Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele on active roster, Wheeler has elevated opportunity for elevation to game day roster in Week 6 and beyond.
